Thread: Medal drop rates on new servers

  1. #1

    Default Medal drop rates on new servers

    Something is very wrong. On server 64 I haven't been able to get any medals to drop. On server 4 I get medals dropping like flies. Attacking lvl 1 to 3 used to get me a rose medals every 10 to 20 attacks. Now I don't get anything on server 64.

    Can I get an official statement to whats going on?
    Can anyones else confirm their drop rates on the new servers?

    Thank you.

    please see the 300 other medal postings around that talk about the medal drop rates on the new servers being around 1%

    I'm willing to bet I could start over on a brand new server and get medals to drop at fairly high rates. Alas, I don't really wish to go through several days of building just to prove this point.

    As with all game mechanics, you have to figure out what works... preferrably adding "why" a tactic works as well. To this point, I have not seen much in the way of "this is what I am doing, why won't medals drop for me?" There has been plenty of companits about medal drop rates though.

    Try something else if medlas aren't dropping for you.

    My post is very different. I'm asking for an official statement.

    Here's the best search:

    But why have drop rates decreased? WHY?! That seems extremely unfair. We're down to less than 1% of all attacks:

    This needs to be fixed now. I'm not spending any time or money on new servers if they're broken.

    Nothing is broken. The drop rates just suck. That the way it is for everybody, sorry man.

    All the advice I can give you is to keep on attacking thousands of time and hope you get lucky.

    That's terrible.....

    When you first start off you get 2 cities where you can attack with 2 x lvl 9 rally 16 times (2 mayors). Say your attack takes 10mins round trip and you play 2 hours a day, that's 192 attacks a day with a .6% drop rate thats 1 medal a day, for 6 days striaght you finally get 3 cities.... IF YOU'RE ACTUALLY LUCKY BECAUSE THIS ISN'T A GUARANTEE.

    For your fourth city you'll have to do the same method above only for more than 2 weeks maybe a month or probably worse!

    Thats crap.

    How long should it take a new player to acquire and fortify 10 cities?

    10 cities in my mind should be attainable quickly so you can start competing against older players on the same server. You shouldn't have to grind your way into that while being beat down by those players.

    Less than 3 months, no more for 10 cities. The new drop method looks like it could take 8 months or more.

    I'm told that once you get past rose and and lion medals it's pretty smooth sailing
